Secret Dreams
Your heart summons secret dreams
to take you to your private place,
where thoughts drift amongst untethered hopes.
A deep longing overshadows
feelings of helplessness and confusion.
And you entertain fantasies,
filled with the impetuosity of youth,
love, desire, and secret revelations.
Yet, you focus on love and happiness,
and let those feelings fill your heart with magic.
Passion paints provocative pictures,
fueling desires and granting wishes.
And like a flame burning in a tinder world,
your presence sets the scene on fire.
You conjure erotic, uncensored emotions,
to appear on your stage of dreams,
for here you're the magician;
and pretending's simply part of the act.
Yet reality holds the unique power,
whereas love can
either morph into a forever moment,
or a dagger, driven deep into your heart.
